Power Adapters and Converters for South Korea
Here is what you need for your electrical appliances in South Korea. You can find the adapter, the small white object that I showed, in Target or Walmart in the travel section. There is usually an area where you will find travel irons, flight pillows, and of course luggage. They cost about $11. Get a couple of them. I like the small black adapter better because it seems to fit more snuggly into the outlet. I know that the black adapter cannot bring the voltage down to to the level that you need it to for your appliances, but you can use it for your laptop. Ask the salesperson about the white adapter, but I am pretty sure that it just changes the prongs to what you need to fit in the outlet and it will not change the voltage. So, if you use the black or the little white adapter, right into the plug for your hairdryer, electric toothbrush or whatever, it will probably break it.
Box for the power converter for South Korea; it is 220v to 110v Down Transformer. You can buy it in South Korea. It's too heavy for your luggage.

Not to turn your awesome blog into craigslist, but if anyone needs a transformer I have an extra one. E-mail me through my profile and we’ll work something out.
